At Lyons Den Power Yoga we practice Baptiste Power Vinyasa Yoga which is a dynamic practice with movements that contract and lengthen our muscles. This style of yoga is considered Yang Yoga where through full body integration we build fire (tapas) and create space through breath and focus. On the other side of the spectrum, Yin Yoga is a deep practice that encourages the body to relax rather than engage. Yin is a perspective shift, it is as much a mental practice as it is a physical practice, moving inwardly to find a balanced state of peace. In this practice we focus on releasing the connective tissue “fascia” to create range of motion in our joints and muscles by targeting ligaments, bones and joints. Yin generally targets the hips, lower back and legs. Yin Yoga is the perfect counter to the firey Yang practice of Power Vinyasa.
